The Metal Balls Are An Important Mechanic (I Think)
I don't know anything about Kids On Bikes, so maybe this is an established thing and I sound ridiculous. But oh well.
This is literally the very first shot of the trailer. Note the copper tubing right at the top, we'll come back to that in a second.
At 0:22, we see one being deposited, through the same copper endpiece, into a receptacle next to a pile of polyhedral dice (I couldn't get a clean shot, it's such a fast shot)
It's not just one at a time, either- here's a shot with 2 at once.
Look at the GM screen. 6 copper tubes, 3 on each side.
And this is the center of the table. 6 outputs, one headed to each player.
For confirmation, here's that same track and receptacle in front of Dan Fucks' character sheet.
Do I know what they'll mean? Absolutely not. Do I sound like the It's Always Sunny meme? 100%.
But it's a thing I noticed and am desperate for more information about.
